  By a show of hands, who would love to be a fly on the wall at one of these events watching Omar do his thing? I sure would!

  Super excited to see you’re lighting courses, because your photos have some of the nicest lighting I’ve seen on YouTube for events, and it’s not even close.

  Your flash class sounds very interesting. I’ll be watching for it.

  Omar my guy.  Use a simple lighting trick he does and my event photos finally went, "BOOM"

  You’re the most entertaining and eye-catching person on YouTube. You should be on a network nightly TV talkshow, SNL, an actor in the big movies or you should be a major news commentator anchor.

  Great video again, Omar! &nbsp; Answering your question from <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmpYEdDmpXE&amp;t=672">11:12</a>: I wanna learn more about exactly ALL you touched already in this video 😀 – off-camera flash from 1-3 flashes and all these little practical advices like, &quot;fighting&quot; color cast or lighting too dark of a background with a 3rd flash.<br><br>AND lastly I would love to see more about the original raw results you are getting with your techniques and how much of a post processing we have to count with. Because THIS IS ESSENTIAL to not get frustrated if I try to achieve similar looks by applying your tipps. <br><br>My request originates from a 2-years-old video of yours &quot;Do THIS to soften your FLASH when doing wedding, event, or club photography!&quot; @7min40sec , where Omar &quot;from the future&quot; talks to YOU 😀, reminding yourself of not underestimating the importance of editting reception photos (&quot;kiss of light to the skin&quot;) and so forth...

  You sir, are a master. I own NO flashes. I&apos;ve recently gotten into mirrorless cameras and I&apos;ve only ever done nature - but I&apos;m loving the photography journey and wanting to do more. But man... EVERYTHING IS EXPENSIVE! haha. I know Godox is more affordable, but still.. I&apos;m thinking about just starting with an AD200 Pro II and a softbox, just for some outdoor stuff, but you really showed how great it can be to have multiple setups. I don&apos;t make money at this, so... that&apos;s also a problem for me. Great video, thanks!

  Your combination of knowledge, experience and sense of humor is what makes your videos so great. I&apos;d love to learn more about how you use flash bounce in your photography. Please teach us more!

  Hi Omar. &nbsp;I&apos;m a full timer, 18yr in the industry that has been doing the same thing you do (except maybe a little more corporate headshots and less bar mitzvahs). &nbsp;Thanks for making an enjoyable video to watch that has helped to jolt some life and interest back into my own hobby-that-became-a-profession.
